 I live in Russia, and I've seen a lot of posts of people telling the prices for insulin in US. I'm completely shocked to see this, so, I'd like to show one of the advantages of living in Russia. I use pens which are on top, their price (for 5 pens) is ~$31. At least something is good in Russia...

 Eli Lilly insulin manufacturer and others make it so you have to spend an additional $425 on a doctor visit to get a prescription to buy the insulin, so your first bottle of insulin is going to cost you $1,000. This is how corrupt and pathetic the medical system in America is. This is why so many diabetics are dying. you need a prescription for Humalog?

However, insulin prices have skyrocketed over the past decade and many patients with diabetes have had to ration their prescription insulin because of cost."Feb 21, 2019
